Memorization Tips for Kinesthetic Learners
Memorization Tips for Kinesthetic Learners
Source: Memory Improvement Central
Kinesthetic learners are those who learn best by doing. Instead of listening to a lecture drawing a diagram on the pros and cons of a certain situation, a kinesthetic learner is one that does best by actually participating and experimenting. These are the ones that tend to love role playing opportunities, science labs and interactive exhibits to help them learn and retain certain information.
Memorization as a kinesthetic learner can be a little more difficult than for those who are auditory or visual learners. Instead of the typical study methods like flash cards, taking notes and listening to lectures, kinesthetic learners need to find a way to study that can work with the way their brain functions best. In this case, doing something like building a model car or playing a sport will not typically help them remember the Tables of Elements.
Kinesthetic learners will typically benefit from hands-on experiments and situations in which they can touch, feel, or observe the information in a different way than others. Instead of reading about history in a history book, they may feel compelled to hit the historical museum in order to fully understand the material. Or, when it comes to science, lab classes will be entirely up their alley, where they get to dissect and examine species and Petry dishes in order to learn about the world around them.
Whether you’re an auditory learner, a visual learner, or a kinesthetic learner, your brain processes information in the best way it knows how. Not every memorization technique will work for everyone, just as not every learning opportunity will stick with every person. Everyone is different, and so are the ways they retain and store information for the long haul—but by knowing your learning style, you will quickly find ways of making information and data more memorable and relevant to you and the way you learn best.

Chain of Words (No. 6)
This is the sixth time that you are doing this exercise; again: it's important that you preform this time better than past. So do your best to get a better result.
1) Take a pen and a few sheets of paper, entitle the first sheet as "Chain of Words No. 6".
2) You should accomplish this practice only in 20 minutes (as you did it before).
3) Full concentration; nobody in the room, no noise and nothing to interrupt you; turn off your cell, TV, radio, etc.
4) You should do this exercise with your ultimate speed, in the highest speed that you can do!
5) Write down a list of words, starting with December. The second word should start with a "D", because December ends with "D". The third word in the list should start with the last letter of your second word. Each item in your list should be a single word: a verb, an adverb, a noun, etc. any word but not a person name. Example: december, rain, nine, electronics, state, evolve, earth, hot, tip, point, ...
You may write any words that you wrote in the previous Chain of Words exercises if you can (that's great if you can remember those words); however, this is not mandatory in this exercise.
Take a clock to measure time; remember only in 20 minutes; without any kind of interruptions!
Ready?
Start!
- - -
OK, when finished, write the count of words in your paper, and keep your list as a record for the next steps that would be a little different!
Now bring your records of Chain of Words No. 1-5. Compare the results (number of words written) with what you did now. Hopefully you did better in Chain of Words No. 6. Note, if not then do this exercise again tomorrow (but not earlier than 12 hours from now on). You should get a result better than Chain of Words No. 5!

Can Bacopa help improve memory?
Bacopa is a herbal remedy made from Bacopa monnieri. This creeping plant grows in marshes and wetlands throughout India and other parts of Southeast Asia. The herbal remedy is also called Brahmi, a word which derives from Brama, the creator god in Hinduism. However, Brahmi is a term that can refer to any substance believed to improve brain function because of the connection between the brain and creativity.
Bacopa has a long history of use in Ayurvedic medicine, which is the traditional medicine of India. It has been used for many different purposes, including as a treatment for epilepsy, insomnia, asthma, rheumatism and heart failure, and more generally as a nerve tonic. More recently, Bacopa has developed a reputation for enhancing cognitive abilities and protecting people against memory loss and dementia (Read more here).

Study reveals how taking an active role in learning enhances memory
New research confirms that having some authority over how one takes in new information significantly enhances one’s ability to remember it. The study, in the journal Nature Neuroscience, also offers a first look at the network of brain structures that contribute to this phenomenon (Read more here).

Visual Memory - Graph 3
Spend 3 minutes studying the following graph:
Now, cover the above graph, and after 10+ minutes, try to make it on the following grid:
This grid consists of 7*12=84 small rectangles. Compare what you drew with the original one above; for how many of the rectangles did you draw the right borders (note that this graph passes only over the rectangles' borders)? For each correct one give yourself +1 point and for any incorrect -1; so the maximum score can be +84. What is your total mark?

Drinking Blue-Green Algae May Help Boost Energy & Improve Memory
By Health News Team, Dec 9th, 2010:
While many may think of algae as a plant that is best left to be consumed by fish, new research has shown that a particular form of it may have significant benefits for energy levels and memory recall, according to Natural News.
E3 Live is an algae that is also known as a green superfood that contains more chlorophyll than any other edible item. It has been used for centuries as a natural remedy by indigenous people, as it contains high amounts of vitamin B, C, and E, as well as folic acid (Read more here).

Brain games key to maintaining mental clarity
SIMPLE computer games can help older people improve their memory and attention, Sydney researchers have found.
People who thought declining memory and brain function were inevitable as they aged gave up too easily, said clinical psychologist Maurice Finn.
People with mild cognitive impairment, often a precursor to dementia, could improve their brain function with computer games, said Mr Finn, who works at the memory clinic at Royal North Shore Hospital's department of aged care and rehabilitation.
Advertisement: Story continues below After 30 sessions the elderly people with mild cognitive impairment got better at playing computer games designed to improve memory and concentration.
The skills they developed also seemed to help them perform better at other, similar tasks, said Mr Finn, who will present his findings at the Australian Association of Gerontology conference in Tasmania this week [Read more ...].

Chewing gum improves your memory!
Chewing gum can improve memory, say UK psychologists. They found that people who chewed throughout tests of both long-term and short-term memory produced significantly better scores than people who did not. But gum-chewing did not boost memory-linked reaction times, used as a measure of attention [1].
There are a number of explanations for the link between recall and chewing gum: Chewing gum raises the heart beat by around 3 BPM, increasing blood flow in the cerebral area, which could explain the improvement in such brain activity [2].
